R. Alex!
The picture of Alexander Ivanovich Morozov "Grinder" since 1932 is stored in the collection of the State Russian Museum.
(And before that for many years did not leave the walls of the Tretyakov Gallery).
And favorably suggested by you.
Three minutes later I will send photos of the original.

Of course, between the original and the timing of your work as there are differences in size, and in the details of the composition (unfortunately - in the direction of simplification of the latter). But:
1) The signature on your work has nothing to do with the autographs A.I.Morozova.
2) The artist who wrote your work, probably never saw grinding machine: a man presses his foot on something sticking out of nowhere, and not connected to anything, there is only the wheel rim (spokes somehow completely absent). At the feet of the poor for no reason, no reason - boots ... And so on and so forth. Somewhere I came across the original drawing, made by Morozov and his paintings (then-whether in Pictorial Review, then-whether in the World illustration).
 However, if the timing experts saw your picture, and see it as a thumbnail (thumbnail-option option - underline) paintings from his collection, I promise to keep quiet kakrybaobled.
About the "excellent condition": canvas and stretcher - old, painting is also not the day before yesterday (though much too pasty, Morozov any 1860 or in 1870 years did not work). There are: hard craquelure, poor communication with the base soil, and as a consequence - the loss of copyright cr. layer (which is clearly seen in the photo area signature). Now, sobssssno, all while ... Think about it - maybe something else to say. (Or, maybe, I will not tell.)

Inclined to agree with you - this opus can be called a sketch-version ...

I tend to agree with you - this opus can be called a sketch -version ...

What can or can not (and even more - "the Law") , will be seen only after a comprehensive review. If I were in your place - would be treated in the picture timing and showed Ms Nesterova. This is - a very serious expert.
However, the owner - a gentleman ...
